The economic and normative treatment of the agile worker

Abstract

The essay addresses the complex issue of proportionality between the amount of work and wage in agile work. The reflections originate from the results of a research conducted with interviews with employees and managers of a macro-productive sector of Milanese area. The scope of the article is to illustrate, through the analysis of data, collective and individual agreements, the implications deriving from the dilation of working time, the main issues emerging from art. 20, l. n. 81/2017 and from the absence of laws aiming at compensating the greater costs deriving from the agile job.
